【010】The First Pot of Gold (2)
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, a puff of white smoke rose from the kitchen, and in a short time, Fan Zhu had baked a dozen or so pancakes, took out two of them and put them in the cupboard, and put the rest in a small cloth bag.
With a creak, the gate opened, and Fan Junjiang carried a bundle of firewood into the yard, stacked the firewood, and then went to the well to get a small half bucket of water to wash.
Fan Zhushi shook his apron, took out the cloth bag, and handed it to him: "It's all packed for you, remember to come back early in the evening, I'll wait for you with the child to eat." ”
"Don't wait, you and the children eat first, and I'll come back to deal with the mouth. took the cloth bag in the lady's hand, turned it upside down, frowned, and just opened the bag, he was stopped by Zhu Yan.
"I've cooked a few more sheets today, and we've kept all the bread for you to eat. ”
"Really?" Fan Junjiang obviously didn't believe it.
"Why, you don't believe what I say, or you should go to the kitchen and take a look. "Ducked away and got out of the way. One way.
Seeing that the lady was angry, Fan Junjiang laughed a few times, and was busy making amends: "Lady, I was wrong, I'm not afraid that you will save it, and I am reluctant to eat." ”
"Okay, I don't know about your dim heart, let's go quickly, I'll be hot when I leave." Zhu Yanjiao sneered, reached out and pushed him.
"Okay, I'm leaving, I've tired you these days, you're going back to the house to sleep. When I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I still didn't forget to turn around and tell my mother.
"Yes, I see. Zhu Yanmu sent him away, then closed the door and turned back to the house.
Yuqi gently covered the window, smiled happily, although the family is very poor, but the father and mother are very affectionate, and there is nothing to say about themselves and their sister, wearing such a home, they feel very happy, poor!
Turned over and got off the ground, got dressed, took out the three small bags that had been divided from the pillow, put them in his arms, turned to look at his sleeping sister, gently opened the door, and flashed out.
Yuqi arrived at a basin of water, facing the reflection of the basin, narcissism, Zhang is okay, not good-looking, but it can also be regarded as beautiful, although it looks malnourished, fortunately, it can be slowly recuperated in the future.
Stretched out his hand and picked up the water in the basin and slapped it on his face, and the water in the well was really cold in the morning.
"Sister Qi, is my aunt awake?" The door was opened a crack, and the two heads, one up and down, looked at her in the crack of the door.
Yuqi turned her head and beckoned to them: "Come in and wait for me for a while, my mother is awake." ”
Brother Yue Lan Jiuyi opened the door and strode in.
Yuqi wiped her face and ran into her mother's house.
"Mother, I'm going to go out to the town with Yue Lan and Brother Jiuyi. ”
Zhu Yan was surprised, and subconsciously asked, "What are you doing in town?"
"Oh, Brother Yue Lan went to the town to ask how much silver a pound of wheat is now, and when the time comes to sell wheat, I have a good idea. ”
In previous years, in addition to paying taxes, it was enough for the family to make ends meet, why do you have to sell it this year? Could it be that Yue Lan is going to say kiss? That's right, it's already nineteen, and there is no daughter-in-law yet, so after thinking about it, I figured it out, smiled and took the comb on the table, and combed the hair of Yuqi in front of me: "Go, remember not to bother Brother Yue Lan to hear it." ”
The chick nodded like a peck: "Well, well, I know, mother." ”
After combing her two bags and hair, she let her go, stood in front of the house, and shouted softly, "Remember to come back early." ”
Yuqi turned around and waved back, "I know Mother." ”
"Cake Yuqi, take the cake and eat it on the way. Remembering that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet, she hurriedly ran to the kitchen, picked up the cake and ran to the door, shouting at Yuqi who ran out for a while.
Yuqi's delicate voice came from afar: "Mother, you eat, I'm not hungry." ”
Zhu Yan shook her head with a smile, took the cake in her hand, and turned back to the courtyard.
The three of them walked happily on the way to the town, and after walking down for half an hour, Yuqi couldn't walk, sitting on the stone on the side of the road, panting, moving her little feet, and a heart-piercing pain seemed to hit her.
"I'll take a look if it's blistered. Yue Lan squatted down and dragged Qi Qi's shoes and socks down, and it was okay to see that it was not blistering, it was just red, presumably if she was going down, she would be able to bubble.
"Brother Yuelan, is it blistering?" looked down at Brother Yuelan putting on his shoes and socks, and asked him pitifully.
"Don't worry, there's no blistering, come and I'll carry you. Yue Lan squatted in front of Qi Qi and waved her hands behind her back.
As soon as Yuqi heard the music, she patted Yuelan's cousin on the back without hesitation, and sat on the free human flesh 'horse' all the way.
Yu Qi looked at the tall city gate in front of her, with a few big characters on it, and reached out and tugged on Brother Yue Lan's sleeve: "What do you read those words?" ”
Yue Lan smiled awkwardly and touched the back of her head: "It should be the Blue Wolf Ancient Town." ”
Blue Wolf Ancient Town!
"What year is it now, and what is the name of the country? Yuqi pretended to be ignorant and asked, except for just knowing what this town was called, the others were not clear, taking this opportunity to investigate, so as to know which country he was wearing and see who the emperor was.
"Thirteen years of the Twilight Country. ”
"Oh. Yuqi searched for changes in her mind and made sure that there was no such country in history now, so she knew that this was an empty country.
Entering the town, Yuqi was very excited, the ancients of the ancient street and ancient town, Yue Lan pulled Yuqi and asked in a low voice: "Sister Qi, where are we going to sell that pearl now." ”
"Silver House, where jewelry is made. ”
"Good. Yue Lan pulled her and turned a few corners before she came to a silver building called 'Old Silversmith'.
Xiao Er in the silver building saw someone coming to the hall, and stepped forward to greet him very enthusiastically: "Yo, objective, please inside, our silver jewelry is the best in the town, not only that, but also the styles are very new, and they can satisfy you." ”
Jiuyi smiled awkwardly, Yue Lan waved her hand, and stopped Xiao Er's enthusiasm: "I have something to show the boss, can you call the boss out." ”
Xiao Er's smiling face immediately froze, his feelings were not here to buy something, his eyes showed disdain, which was the same as getting weaker just now, and he squinted at Yue Lan with hanging eyes: "What do you have to find our boss, I'll take a look at it first." ”
"Why show it to you, you can call the shots?"
Xiao Er choked, glared at Yue Lan, and snorted heavily with his neck: "Our boss is not here." ”
"Brother, since the boss is not here, let's go. Yuqi took his hand, shook his head slightly, his eyes swept over the silver jewelry on the counter, but he was very disdainful in his heart, even if he took out the pearls, he couldn't accept them according to the boss's eyes, so why waste time here.
Out of the house, Yue Lan led Jiu Yi and Yu Qi to the nearest silver building, Yu Qi looked at the façade and shook her head: "Brother Yue Lan, let's go to the biggest, most expensive, and best place to sell jewelry in the town." ”
Jiuyi looked at the second brother, looked at Yuqi, and frowned in embarrassment: "Sister Qi, this thing is really straight silver?." ”
"It's worth it. ”
Well, Sister Qi is so sure, it must really be worth silver, Yue Lan carried Yuqi and Jiuyi straight to the famous 'Treasure Building' in the town.
Yue Lan put down Yuqi, stretched out her finger and pointed to the four-story façade in front of her, and said to her: "This is the best silver building in the town, and the things in it are very expensive, no." ”
"Alright, I got it, let's go. Yuqi interrupted him impatiently and walked in first.
Wow, it's so big, this is Yuqi's first impression when she enters the 'Treasure Building'.
Xiao Er saw three unfamiliar faces coming to the building, and he knew how to dress up, and stepped forward to entertain him warmly: "Objectively, please, I don't know what the three of you want to buy?" We have recently come to some more affordable and good-looking gold and silver jewelry, and the styles are the most popular now, and the workmanship is fine. ”
Yuqi saw that there was no trace of impatience on his face or looked down on him, and quickly gave him a full score in his heart.
"Brother, I want to see the most popular golden hairpin. Yuqi blinked her eyes and looked at him.
Xiao Er was stunned, muttering in his heart, and frowned: "Is this this!"
"Are you afraid that I won't be able to pay the money?" Yuqi asked Xiao Er with a straight face, and all the good feelings she had for him just now were gone.
"No, no, no. ”
"Then why don't you show me. ”
Su Mo looked at her aggressively and raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling very interesting, waving a fan and slapping his palms and slowly walked over: "Since Miss is so interested in watching, how about I, Su, accompany Miss to watch it in person?"
Yu Qi glanced at him: "Who are you?"
